And what is listening to that port?  Can you identify the application?
Just for the record -- may be it will narrow down the search list.

Robert Watson told us today at the morning that he spotted the bug
that lead to the '*' instead of port number.  Robert, can you post
the patch -- it seems to be not yet committed, at least cvs-src
list has no signs of it?

By the way, is the patch touches in_pcbdrop() in /sys/netinet/in_pcb.c,
removing instruction 'inp->inp_lport = 0;'?
